Magnier of red morocco over red pebbled cloth boards, sides stamped and ruled in blind, spine with raised bands and richly gilt-decorated compartments, white silk moir� endpapers, green silk ribbon page-marker, all edges gilt. Engraved frontispiece, title vignette, and numerous vignettes in the letterpress, all by Grandville. Very occasional light scattered foxing, generally an excellent copy in a mint binding. Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695) was the most famous French fabulist and one of the most widely read French poets of the 17th century.
